63: When Linglong doubted Jiaosheng

Inside the Cave Heaven Small World.

Li Mu had just returned when Linglong, who was coiled up digesting Spirit Stones, sensed his presence and looked up at him.

She let out a soft whine, then continued to lie down and refine the Top-Grade Spirit Stone she had consumed.

Seeing this, Li Mu's face showed a slight smile.

Before, almost every time he came in, he would see Linglong frolicking around in the Cave Heaven Small World.

Li Mu even thought about whether he should bring in some land animals and birds from outside, oh! And fish…

Now, the land animals, birds, and fish in the Cave Heaven Small World were becoming fewer and fewer!

When the Cave Heaven Small World first appeared, the birds, land animals, and so on inside were just ordinary mortal beasts, completely unable to escape from Linglong.

During that period, whether it was land animals, birds, or fish, they all suffered heavy losses!

However, after living in the Spiritual Qi-rich Cave Heaven Small World for a period of time, these birds, land animals, and fish, although not yet Spirit Beasts, had strengthened considerably compared to when they first started.

Of course, Li Mu wasn't sure if it was his illusion, but he felt that while there were no obvious evolutions in other aspects of the animals currently in the Cave Heaven Small World, their speed was uncommonly fast!

As long as Linglong wasn't stubborn with a certain animal, she really might let these animals escape if she wasn't careful...

Now that Linglong was absorbing the Spiritual Qi from the Top-Grade Spirit Stone, she was much more well-behaved, giving the animals in the Cave Heaven Small World some breathing room.

After a while longer, Linglong finally absorbed all the rich Spiritual Qi contained within the Top-Grade Spirit Stone.

Then she smacked her lips, looking unsatisfied, and the next second joyfully approached Li Mu, happily circling him.

After absorbing the Spiritual Qi from the Top-Grade Spirit Stone, Li Mu could clearly feel that Linglong's strength had improved slightly!

Seeing Linglong acting very slyly and trying to curry favor, Li Mu was not stingy and took out another Top-Grade Spirit Stone.

He opened his palm, and the Spirit Stone lay in Li Mu's palm, then he presented it to Linglong.

Linglong's beautiful, large eyes narrowed with joy upon seeing this, and she took a bite, even encompassing Li Mu's palm in her mouth.

Then, she seemed to realize the texture wasn't quite right, and she licked Li Mu's hand with her pink tongue, causing her whole body to shiver.

Seeing Li Mu looking at her with a smile at that moment, Linglong immediately cowered.

She quickly opened her mouth, releasing Li Mu's hand and the Spirit Stone together, then nudged Li Mu's hand with her head in a fawning manner.

She showed an innocent look in her eyes.

Li Mu: “...”

As this fellow's strength grows, her intelligence also increases, making her even slyer than before!

Then Li Mu smiled and shook his head, tossing the Spirit Stone in his hand into her mouth.

Linglong immediately narrowed her eyes happily, then scampered off to the side, continuing to refine the Spiritual Qi from this Spirit Stone.

Seeing this, Li Mu also simply sat down cross-legged, then took out a Top-Grade Spirit Stone and the Jin Ming Sword.

He planned to absorb the pure Spiritual Qi from the Top-Grade Spirit Stone to nourish the sword, allowing the Jin Ming Sword's strength to advance another level, so that it could become a higher-grade Natal Magical Artifact sooner.

Li Mu was not lacking in Spirit Stones now.

The System had just rewarded him with ten thousand Top-Grade Spirit Stones, not to mention the ten thousand Spirit Stones rewarded previously!

The Spiritual Qi contained in those ordinary Spirit Stones was naturally not as pure or as rich as that in Top-Grade Spirit Stones, but it was more than enough to be used as Materials for setting up formations.

However, Linglong, who was just about to refine her Spirit Stone, upon seeing Li Mu take out the Jin Ming Sword, seemed unable to take her eyes off its shimmering golden appearance.

Li Mu saw her reaction and smiled, shaking his head. It was only a legend before that Dragons liked to collect treasures, especially shiny ones, but now it seemed this rumor was true!

Then, after a moment of thought, he took out a green longsword from his Storage Pouch.

This was one of the rewards obtained when Qin Zhe's trust level reached max, a High Grade Spiritual Artifact-level Flying Sword.

This sword was named Green Peak, primarily offensive. Its sharpness was almost comparable to the current Jin Ming Sword, but its speed for sword-riding flight was much slower.

He said with a smile, “If you want it, once you transform, this sword will be yours.”

Linglong came closer, looked at Li Mu, then at the Green Peak Sword in Li Mu's hand, and tilted her head, thinking.

Then she still shook her head, refusing.

The Green Peak Sword didn't sparkle like the Jin Ming Sword; it wasn't pretty at all!

At the same time, she also showed off her claws to Li Mu, indicating that her claws were very powerful.

Li Mu looked at the triumphant Linglong, and with a gentle swipe of the Green Peak Sword in his hand, a small piece of keratin from one of Linglong's claws was directly shaved off.

Linglong's previously triumphant face instantly froze.

She looked at the piece of keratin shaved from her claw on the ground, then at the longsword in Li Mu's hand, which didn't look shiny at all, and then at her own claws.

............

Time passed quickly, and another ten minutes went by in a flash.

Li Mu had already begun to cultivate with his eyes closed, using the Spiritual Qi from the Top-Grade Spirit Stone to nourish his sword.

Beside Li Mu, Linglong was curled up, sleeping soundly, digesting the Top-Grade Spirit Stone's Spiritual Qi within her body.

Beneath her massive body, a small part of the Green Peak Sword's hilt was exposed.

Hmm!

Now the Green Peak Sword was hers.

Li Mu had originally intended to give it to her after she transformed, but after Linglong's persistent coaxing for ten minutes, he simply gave it to her.

Anyway, since she hadn't transformed yet, holding this sword wouldn't allow her to unleash its full power, so it was just for her to play with.

The Green Peak Sword, pressed beneath Linglong's huge body: “...”

You are noble, you are amazing, just pressing me down like this...

............

Old Delhi, A San Country!

Yi He, who was preparing to return to his country, coincidentally met people from the embassy. When he heard that the embassy was organizing everyone and that there was a special warship to pick them up and take them back home, Yi He finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he left Old Delhi with the embassy staff!

Yi He swore that after returning, he would go to a temple or a Daoist temple to ask for a Talismanic Incantation to remove bad luck and wear it with him.

The experiences during this period were simply too crazy!

Yi He grumbled as he followed the crowd onto the warship, heading back to Xia Country...

He planned that after he returned, he wouldn't go out and wander for the rest of the year. He would just stay at his coffee shop, and have supplies delivered directly, even if it cost him some shipping fees!

This year wasn't suitable for him to go out, otherwise, he might just end up dead one day...
